An elegant first flush Darjeeling where freshness and refinement meet the aroma of bergamot. Earl Grey Darjeeling First Flush preserves the light, floral character of the first harvest and adds a bright citrus glow.
Darjeeling’s delicate base is carefully flavored with natural bergamot oil. The tea stays light and transparent, without overshadowing the freshness and tension of the first flush.

Bergamot in the Mountains
Earl Grey is traditionally associated with bergamot — a citrus fruit from southern Italy, prized for the bright, aromatic oils in its peel. In this interpretation, that classic aroma is used with restraint, not to dominate, but to support.
The base is a first flush Darjeeling, harvested in early spring high in the foothills of the Himalayas. This young harvest is known for its light structure, floral tension, and fresh clarity. These qualities make Darjeeling uniquely suited to a refined Earl Grey.
By carefully dosing natural bergamot oil, a tea emerges in which citrus and altitude enhance one another. No heavy perfume, but brightness and lift — like sunlight cutting through mountain air. This is not a classic Earl Grey, but a precise reinterpretation: clear, elegant, and balanced.
